Newton's first, second, and third law conservation of energy- b/c energy is conserved throughout...transfered from potential to kinetic conservation of momentum...it's conserved too..but the thing is there's all these external forces which I don't know what to do with :S That's all I can...

I was thinking maybe inertia, momentum...something along those lines...but the thing is..my physics formula knowledge isn't that great so I'm literally just throwing equations out there I have no idea that will prove/show that 2 stage rockets go higher than 1 stage rockets...If someone can lead...

Hey guys I need help. I'm doing a water rocket experiment for this essay. I have a single stage and a two stage rocket. My question is why two stage rockets work better as in go higher than two stage rockets. What measurments should I take? Please also consider equations i can use .like momentum...
